alt Hacker NewsI understand for some people its the display of human wizardy that matters.
For me it's about making the computer do awesome things - I do not care how I get there I just want it to do whatever I can conjure in my head.

It's usually not even the display.
When I go on a trek, the end of trek landmark is nowhere nearly as significant as the experience of reaching it.
If I were to be magically transported there without the lives experience it would take almost all of the joy out of it. Some people get a kick out of doing hard things that are interesting but seemingly beyond one's ability. Making it an easy commodity spoils the fun.
As for teleportation, if it were, say, trip to moons of Saturn I can make exceptions.
As much as I enjoy the novelty of asking anime pictures from chatGPT I do not, for a single moment, consider myself a doer of anime pictures.
And a fair aside, the result will be "good enough" approximation of what I conjured in my head, but never the thing itself. For me to do the exact thing I conjured in my head it will require to pick up the mouse and draw the rest of the owl. I don't know if that's more telling of my imagination being demanding or my standards.
